Jackson's done. This is Spillers team now.
I would make a trade for a solid LB and sign a vet CB right away. Barnett is regressing and Shepp is not a starter in the NFL IMO. I have seen enough from Shepp both at LSU and for the Bills. He's late to the ball, washed out of too many plays, or over pursues. And he jumps on way more piles than he starts. Ohh he misses plenty tackles as well.
Maybe we can get London Fletcher back.
Bench McKelvin and start McGee or Rogers at his spot. He's just not a solid CB.
That's like asking who sucks more: Lawyers or Oil Executives?
I'd begin plans for insurance for Fitz now. I'm not a huge fan of the QB prospects in next years draft but we have to start looking. I'd be looking hard for a viable future QB.
Tavares will be starting after week 4.
Extend Gailey long term. He's a very good coach (today withstanding) and today wasn't his fault. He will work this team hard in the wake of this game. Wanny may need to be canned though.
Gailey sucks. Always has, always will, but offer his a lifetime contract now, because nobody else wants the job. Otherwise the players will have to self-coach.
I'd bench Pears at RT and keep Hairston as your starter. Hairston has better upside and played well.
Who cares?
